Q&A with BobbiSpain

cindykay4lg2 asked:

I was wondering how big you made the finished dog? Also, did you draw out and design your own pattern pieces? I have the material but don't like the pattern. I did not buy it because it looks like it could be simplified! you did a great job.

BobbiSpain answered:

I agree with you about the pattern. I made my own pattern. Since the dog is symmetrical, you only have to draw out one half of the pattern. The Simplicity pattern looked very complicated, so I simplified it for myself. The finished size was about 60" tall. I drew out the head, and body on a large roll of paper - they are just simple shapes. Then I cut the large shapes into smaller sections. I used these sections as my pattern pieces. Sew each section with the right sides facing out, with a smaller piece of batting sandwiched between. Leave a 1" seam allowance for ragging. Good luck!

Where can you get the pattern. I was told that it has been discontinued.

Hi everyone!! I was wondering if there was anyone out there who would be willing to share their Simplicity Pattern 4993? I know it's a lot to ask a fellow sewer/crafter, but it is almost impossible to find one that you can afford!! Please let me know if you're interested by contacting me at 'lemonyellowsunshine@yahoo.com'. Thanks everyone!! Mary
